Although most Americans become eligible for Medicare at age 65, you are under no obligation to sign up for Medicare when you turn 65. Enrollment in Medicare is entirely voluntary. You are not required to enroll at age 65 or any other time.
Who needs to apply for Medicare? You may not need to sign up for Original Medicare, Part A and Part B, but you may have options about the type of Medicare coverage you receive. To be eligible for Medicare, you must be either a U.S. citizen or a legal permanent resident of at least five continuous years. Generally, if you're receiving Social Security or Railroad Retirement Board (RRB) benefits, you'll be automatically enrolled in Medicare when you turn 65.
